Thanks Toro Bravo and StrapDaddy - Cartier Santos 100xl

[If you see Kay]

both are pretty 'thin' actually... I am more used to thicker straps - so when I got put them side by side - the comparison was primarily in how they were both pretty thin.... ill try to snap some pictures and do a little sbs - if i do - i will make sure to PM you the link

thanks. !!

you know the strap I almost bought was yours. I asked the seller to buy the strap on its own, but didn't follow up on it :frusty:

Might I ask how much the watch goes for?

 

[notsobreit]

they are spendy... I would drop strap daddy a pm and see if he can put one on his 'watch list' for you and see if another one comes up.....

OEM strap or go no watch at all is what I say usually.......


*** edit
I read how expensive are the straps
The watch was between 360-380ish I wanna say for the "ultimate" version w/ Swiss movement

Drop Toro Bravo a note - he can source

Damn... its on my list now.

If you don't mind, how much was the strap?

 

[pjsayer]

Nice watch. I was considering a gen strap for mine, but don't fancy shelling out £350+. Here's a few pics with the rep strap for comparison...

So I wanted to share a few pictures of a recent purchase. A watch I feel is a very underrated rep.
I don't see it get a ton of press but it's a HOT watch in my opinion so I thought I'd share some pics.

Cartier Santos 100xl 38mm ultimate version
w/ swiss 2982-2 + Genuine OEM Cartier black croc strap.
I purchased the Santos from Toro Bravo and Strap Daddy sourced the OEM strap...

enjoy

Perfect combo that I'd like to replicate....I am halfway there....now just need the Gen strap......Strapdaddy isn't around anymore (it seems) or I'd have sought the strap from him.....Hopefully I will come across one, soon.....

[Jaybo]

Awesome!

 

[Leewei]

Omg... I really want one. Ultimate combo.

The strap can always be replaced but this rep is a head turner!

Hi Yawn,
Where did you source the gen bezel screws?
Thanks!
